Reviews

Every year, when we get to this week, we wonder if Bill is going to get a raise. We did have one year he did not. I wonder if they could use Performance Review Software to help them. Then their reviews would be done in a timely fashion. I cannot tell you how many times we found out if he was getting a raise by looking at his paycheck. It is very frustrating.

My Day

Went to the doctor yesterday for my 13 week check-up. I lost 7lbs. from my last appt. Anybody who knows me knows I can afford to lose the weight. However, due to some other symptoms I have been having the doctor is concerned. I have been having some really bad dizzy spells. He gave me a prescription for the nausea. I also had to get blood work done this morning. They are testing my iron levels and glucose. I am trying not be worried. This alone makes me want to cry.

Then I get home and get yesterday’s mail and I have a bill from the hospital. From July. Its the emergency room bill from my miscarriage that was suppose to covered. I talked to both Blue Cross Blue Shield and the hospital in August and thought this was taken care of. Guess I was wrong. I now have to call Blue Cross back in a week to see what they are going to do. I almost completely lost it with the CS rep at Blue Cross. Not her fault, but this is from July and you people were suppose to be dealing with it.

I spent the rest of the day cleaning for Christmas and looking for Rockstartup puzzle pieces. I have 28 of the 30 pieces. One of the pieces I am missing has been released but nobody can find it. The last piece is suppose to be release tomorrow.

A bit of good news - my furniture is suppose to be delivered tomorrow between 12 - 4. Overall though, I still feel like crying. Gotta love pregnancy hormones.

Christmas Shopping

Still shopping for Christmas? Check out CouponChief.com if you are still needing Christmas gifts. You have to buy them anyway, so save yourself a little money. I know my sister in law would like the Pottery Barn coupon. It is for free shipping.

I am just glad I am done Christmas shopping. I just need to pick up 1 gift certificate and possibly a dinosaur for Madison (she accidently ripped the head off hers. Long story.)

Revenge

Husband: When I get mad at you, you never fight back. How do you control your anger?
Wife: I clean the toilet…
Husband: How does that help?
Wife: I use your toothbrush….

Eve’s side of the story

After three weeks in the Garden of Eden, God came to visit Eve. “So,How is everything going?” inquired God.

“It is all so beautiful, God,” she replied.

“The sunrises and sunsets are breathtaking, the smells, the sights, Everything is wonderful, but I have just one problem. It is these Breasts you have given me The middle one pushes the other two out and I am constantly knocking them with my arms, catching them on branches and snagging them on bushes. They are a real pain,” reported Eve.

And Eve went on to tell God that since many other parts of her body came in pairs, such as her limbs, eyes, ears, etc……….she felt that having only two breasts might leave her body more “symmetrically balanced,” as she put it.

“That is a fair point,” replied God, “But it was my first shot at this, you know. I gave the animals six breasts, so I figured that you needed only half of those, but I see that you are right. I will fix it up right away.” And God reached down, removed the middle breast and tossed it into the bushes.

Three weeks passed and God once again visited Eve in the Garden of Eden. “Well, Eve, how is my favorite creation?” “Just fantastic,” she replied, “But for one oversight on your part. You see, all the animals are paired off. The ewe has a ram and the cow has her bull. All the animals have a mate except me. I feel so alone.”

God thought for a moment and said, “You know, Eve, you are right. How could I have overlooked this? You do need a mate and I will immediately create a man from a part of you Now let’s see………..where did I put the useless boob?”

Now doesn’t THAT make more sense than that crap about the rib?
